Say what you think, then see how everyone else read it.
Golden Dawn Mama is the second book by David Seth Moltz, the perfumer behind D.S. & Durga. Ninety-three pages of rhythmic words, bird-feeder observations, drawings and rutabaga rules, all written under pandemic doom. It is looser and stranger than a standard poetry collection, closer to a notebook kept by someone who thinks in smells and sounds at the same time. Printed with original artwork. A good gift for readers, poetry people and anyone who wants the unfiltered version of the mind behind the fragrance house. Sold on its own, and it works well paired with a candle for a gift. Also available alongside Sometimes My Light's Turned On and The Soft Chorus for the complete set of three.
